White Lotus fans have seven options for next thrilling binge watch
After delivering an intriguingly odd monologue that had fans pondering its significance, Frank was last seen meditating in a Buddhist temple in the season finale, while his friend Rick lay dying following a dramatic shootout.
Fans yearning for more of Sam Rockwell can turn to the 2002 film that first catapulted him into the limelight, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind.
Directed by George Clooney, this biographical spy film narrates the tale of Chuck Barris, a gameshow host who alleges to be working for the CIA.
The film boasts an impressive ensemble cast, including A-listers Drew Barrymore and Julia Roberts, not to mention Clooney. The hit YouTube channel WatchMojo recently spotlighted it in a video titled 'Top 20 Most Underrated Movies of the 2000s'.
Securing 12th place, the narrator summarised: "It really is a wonder why this movie never caught on... The actors are all fantastic - most notably, the perpetually underrated Sam Rockwell as Barris."
Enthusiastic cinephiles swarmed the comments to voice their verdicts. One viewer declared: "Moral of the story: Sam Rockwell is incredibly underrated".
Another concurred with the list ranking: "Totally agree with #12, it was really good", while another shared: "Moral of the story just watch anything Sam Rockwell does ever."
Another commented: "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind is an absolute masterpiece. Like the famous Chaplin look-alike contest where Charlie came in 2nd, Sam Rockwell was more Chuck Barris than Chuck Barris himself."
A fellow film lover stated: "I think underrated movies need more attention". Confessions of a Dangerous Mind wasn't Sam Rockwell's sole feature on the list.
Highlighting Rockwell's prominence, one admirer noted: "Impressive that Sam Rockwell is in the number 2 on this WatchMojo list; as well as the star of Moon and portraying Chuck Barris [the gameshow] host in Confessions of a Dangerous Mind (one of the movies I may need to see for a 2nd time)."
And another added: "Sam Rockwell is in like half of these".
